Both the Gonzaga men and the Gonzaga women reach the NCAA Sweet Sixteen. The men for the 9th (10th) time in a ROW! That's as hard as we were watching them win.

We'll spend some time celebrating those wins before looking ahead to some difficult match-ups against Purdue and Texas.

Go Zags!

In a marvelous turn of events, the Gonzaga Men earned a 5 seed in the NCAA tournament. In an even more impressive feat, the Women's team earned a 4 seed and will host the first two rounds of the NCAA Women's Tournamen at the McCarthey Athletic Center.

How excited are we? Very. How confident are we? Unreasonably.

We'll tell the tale of the opening round match-up and spin the yarn of a hopeful second round opponent as well.

It's the most wonderful time of the year on this episode of Free Ira Brown! THE Gonzaga Hoops Podcast.

After a routine road win at Portland and supreme revenge against Santa Clara last week, our attention turns to the biggest, and final weekend of the season. Gonzaga travels to the Bay Area to face WCC hopefuls, San Francisco, in the Chase Center and to Moraga to end Saint Mary's nation-leading winning streak.

With so much at stake, we thought it best to bring in GU Basketball expert, Steven Karr to discuss.
